Dress Up

Though its been an unusually warm January, there’s no doubt that it is in fact sweater weather here in Toronto. I’m a huge proponent of sweaters, whether they’re thick fleecy sweatshirts or thick cable knits, and every winter I add one or two special pieces to my neatly folded collection.

A few weeks ago our good friends at CONVEY (our favourite shop in the city, conveniently located right across from the Pastel Palace) mentioned they had a new knitwear shipment, so I immediately popped over to see what they had in store. Within seconds I had totally fallen for an oversized bubblegum pink boyfriend sweater, and as soon as I put it on my body I knew it had to be mine.

Long story short, I pretty much haven’t taken it off since. Seriously, this sweater is the softest cotton candy perfection, and it’s oh so warm! Paired with a collared shirt and my new favourite 3×1 black skinny jeans (conveniently also from CONVEY), it’s my new favourite winter staple.

Dress Up

Like just about everyone, I have a bad habit of returning to the same spots time and time again to take photos. The “pink wall” of Vancouver (conveniently attached to a very tasty ice cream shop) is no exception, and it’s become a bit of a pilgrimage every time I’m back in my home town. My trip home over the holidays this past December was no exception, and despite the frightful weather conditions I managed to convince my dad to help me take some snaps in my new favourite outfit from CONVEY.

Dressed up in the a leather skort, iridescent pink loafers, a cashmere sweater and the softest white silk shirt of all time (similar here), I braved the wind and pouring rain to get these snaps because the outfit was just that cute. Horrible at the time? Definitely. Worth it in the end? I think yes…
